Come on, everyone! Do the Happy Happy Joy Joy Dance with me! ;-)
It’s been an incredible morning for me. I’ve finally did it - I finally accomplished my mini goal and got down to 160 pounds. I stood on the scale this morning in shock and cried happy tears of joy. I know, such a cry baby!! ;-) But I did it! For the first time in 10 years, I’ve been able to not give up on myself and loose the extra weight that I’ve always wanted. I still have more to go. But now I’m super excited because I know it won’t be impossible. You can do anything that you set your mind to - if you truly want it enough. It’s like the handsome Tim McGraw says (Ooooh, I love that man!) when he sings, “How bad do you want it? How bad do you need it? Are you eatin, sleepin, dreamin’ with that one thing on your mind!!?” Yeah, baby, I love it!!! Now I feel like I can do anything. I’ve been wanting to get my fiction novel that I’ve been writing for the past 6 years published, and now I’m actually thinking that I could even accomplish that.
Oprah Book Club - here I come!! LOL~
Anyway, just wanted to share my excitement with you this morning. I couldn’t have done it without the support of my buddies here. I really mean that. Each day somebody here teaches me something new about health and nutrition. Others teach me how to hang on and not give up. Then others teach me how to cry during the rough times then to get back on my feet and get busy again. This site truly does work…even though we’re all strangers that have never met. (Well, some of us anyway…) But you’ve all been so great, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
So please do the Happy Happy Joy Joy Dance with me. (Don’t ask me how the dance is done, I look too silly when I do it!!) But I’m dyin over here wanting to party with someone LOL~ I wish I could meet my buddies in person. There are a few people here at work who have helped me in my progression, but for the most part people here don’t really understand. My husband, bless his heart, gave me a hug and made me feel beautiful. It’s too bad he doesn’t fully realize the depth of HIS beauty. ;-) But anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful day. Keep up the hard work and determination to accomplish your goals, and your dreams will come true!!

Doing the dance with you, albeit slowly…I had a rehearsal this morning, a show this afternoon and went to the waterfront, where I biked for 3 hours—-BUT like I said, I am doing the dance with you. What you have accomplished is HUGE and your excitement is contagious, THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your success. And I agree, this site rocks, I tried to stay away, but couldn’t!
